1st 3D rose

[beautynails]

I noticed the tutorial on how to make 3D flowers today, so I thought I'd give it a go. I had such fun, I think I might have gotten a bit carried away. :lol:

It is absolutly beautifull!! just a trick to make them more lively... mix in two shades in your petals. a base color for 4/5 of your petal and a darker color on the rims of the petals that will be pointing upwarts.

great work

This is a lovely rose mate, very well done.

I love doing flowers like these, but yours is so real looking well done.

 

[nailspirit]

wow that is fab, you guys amaze me even after studying the tutorials i wouldnt know where to begin, how talented you all are

Oh i just forgot to mention something small. You rose looks absolutly gorgeous but proportion wise i think that the center of the rose is maybe slightly a bit to high up. looks great anyway but maybe try to make your strip of acrylic that you use for the center a bit smaller since it has a tendency to get higher while you role it up :wink2: Ofcourse this is just a matter of taste and i give you a max score doll

Thank you. It was (of course) your tutorial that I saw. It was very easy to follow. I'll take note of your advice when I try it again.

[beautynails]

OH NO...............It was beginners luck............I can't do it again. :lol::lol:

 

[nailzoo]

it's great, no need for nails, it almost covers the whole finger end :lol:
a little bit smaller would be nice, but I know what it's like, when you start, it all gets out of hand.
You did a great job

:lol: I'm glad somebody gets it. I just kept making petals, then by the time I went to put it on the nail it was HUGE. I'm just glad I was putting it on the nail trainer, not myself, because it would be twice the size of one of my nails.
I made some pretty rose buds too, but I had nowhere to put them. LOL

They are fabulous. I've only just got mine and I'm using it everyday.
There are lots of thread about them on this site, here is one.
